BDNF augmentation reverses cranial radiation therapy-induced cognitive decline and neurodegenerative consequences
2024-09-24
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Cranial radiation therapy (RT) for brain cancers is often associated with the development of radiation-induced cognitive dysfunction (RICD). RICD significantly impacts the quality of life for cancer survivors, highlighting an unmet medical need. Previous human studies revealed a marked reduction in plasma brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) post-chronic chemotherapy, linking this decline to...
